looks great i love it

funster 06-08-2007 08:02 PM

Nicw looking car. Are those Toyo's on those rims? If so, how do you like them from a performance standpoint?

blinkwatt 06-08-2007 10:12 PM

@ Bisimoto,

Is that your prototype exhaust?

Gary in BR 06-08-2007 10:43 PM

That is a beautiful car,
I love the exhaust tips, when do we get to hear it??

djomlas 06-08-2007 10:50 PM

jeez man, thats low as hell.
i was considering that bumper, but now im having 2nd thoughts about it, ALTHOUGH, my car is not as low as ours.

Yes, I can, with some velocity, I may add.


Funster, they are Toyos...very nice ride indeed, with very little road noise.

Blink, yes it is. Made so much power, I am afraid to share. I would like one more iteration of the design, to hopefully improve on an already amazing layout.

Gary, I need to get together a sound clip....as soon as I figure out how to do so..lol

DJ, it is not as low as it looks. I have access to two different bottom lips: the one on the car and a less agressive one that gives an additional inch of ground clearance.

Nonetheless, thank you everyone for your kind words.

Which front end is that, and from which company? Looks incredible!!!!

I got it from a company known as BJ motorsports, in Los Angeles: one of my many accounts. PM for information and prices.

Boxtaboy 06-09-2007 05:48 AM

Looks awesome Bisi. Great job. Exhaust tips look great too.

To make a simple sound clip, just use a digital camera to record a video while someone revs your car or does a drive by. Then load it to your computer and goto a hosting service like tinypic.com to load onto their site. Then just give us the link here to view it. I'd love to hear your custom exhaust.

djomlas 06-09-2007 08:21 AM

thx for the info man. i really like that bumper a lot.
how does it look with no lip at all? do you have pics of that?

jwilson95 06-09-2007 11:32 AM

Bisi-

Looks really tough. I'd be so afraid of ripping of that front end I'd probably have tunnel vision while driving!

Really want to see the numbers off your dyno and more importantly hear that exhaust. It definitely looks the part.

Chills 06-09-2007 04:11 PM

Not to be the only negative one in here, but the car looks a bit front-end heavy now. The bumber is huge and the tail is small looking by comparison.

Nothing personal, I've just never been a fan of that bumper.

I like your wheels though. :cool:

xxxalexxxx 06-09-2007 09:36 PM

I have to agree with Chills, a little front end heavy to me now now but i love the wheels and the color. The cars amazing just not a fan of the bumper.

btw that is crazy low haha hope theres no speed bumps where u drive that thing lol

spine911 06-10-2007 06:35 AM

Nice looking car; although IMO the TECHART bumper does not really flow that well for the Boxster than for its more powerfull/aggressive 996 brother.
To each his own though. :cheers:

boxsterx 06-10-2007 10:08 AM

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

car looks great - the front bumper treatment really made a huge difference! How was the install btw? was fit and finish up to oem standards?

Between the last time i saw your car at the outback steakhouse meet and the pics above - that is just a huge improvement! Can't wait to see your car up close again! :cheers:

Boxter 06-10-2007 10:52 AM

looks great....

No, DJ, but if I ever modify the lip, I will attempt to take pics for you.

Box,
The installation was a snap...no need to modify the bumper at all. There are 2 lip options, and I opted for the more aggressive one. It looks so sick in person!

Thanks, all, for the feedback, both positive and not so positive. On the road, this mod gets tons of compliments...more than I ever expected!

[986] 06-11-2007 01:39 AM

Damn thats one tough looking car. I love it! :D

Darkhamr 06-11-2007 05:44 AM

Looks cool, but I agree the back end needs skirting to balance the look.

porsche986spyder 06-11-2007 06:23 AM

I love the way your car looks. Just need to paint those bumperrets, change the gold hood crest to match the silver ones you have on the wheels center caps and add some rear bumper diffusers underneath. Overall it looks great. Good luck on keeping that front end bottom from getting scraped up! :cheers:

Sboxin 06-11-2007 07:11 AM

What happened to the Deluboz headers you were going to Dyno for us?
Did you skip that step and go onto your own header design?

Please let us know - I have been waiting for this Dyno results for a while...

Thanks,
Ed

Ex911Ownr 06-11-2007 10:12 AM

Sweet! I've been looking for one of those "986S" emblem's myself where did you find that one? I've seen em on ebay sometimes, but just curious....car looks awesome btw.

easyc 06-11-2007 04:17 PM

I got my 986 S emblem from Eric of bumperplugs.com... highly recommend it.

Those are good ideas, but I do like the black bumperettes...keeps the black and seal grey theme going.


SBoxin,
Even though I design the most efficient and powerful high performance headers in certain markets, I have not made one for the Boxster yet. I am still commited to testing Deluboz units, but have run into 3 issues: No lift at my facility yet, I have not solved the CEL dilemma that exists when removing the primary CATs (on the S), and how to meticulously extend the O2 sensor wires to allow fitiment of those units. I am very anal with technology, and need more time with the amount of projects I have pending. Those who have visited my facility understand my position.

I got mine from Bumperplugs as well.

EasyC..thanks again!

porsche986spyder 06-12-2007 06:05 AM

So what size rims are those? 18s or 19s?

Bisimoto 06-12-2007 06:25 AM

19x8.5 on the front, and 19x10.5 on the rear, with 1.5" and 4.5" lips, respectively. I also run Toyos on them.

I take it your car is lowered too? Did you do both shocks and springs or just springs?

Bisimoto 06-12-2007 08:50 AM

Yes, I did: Eibach..1.0" all around at 1st, and settled to 1.4" on the rears and 1.2" on the fronts, after some time.

So no new shocks? Only shorter springs, right?

Bisimoto 06-12-2007 12:38 PM

Yes, sir! Sport springs only.

easyc 06-12-2007 03:10 PM

Your welcome man... I actually come out to LA about once or twice a year... next time Im out I will come by and check out the operation. This link may be of interest in your header development... came across it a while back... http://www.instant-g.com/Products/Exhausts/Box34/header.html

Tom Blue 06-14-2007 08:13 AM

Solvent?
 
I like your 986 S emblem. Recently I purchased a Boxster S emblem and the instructions about removing the old adhesive were noncommital. It just said to use a solvent. What type of solvent did you use to remove the old adhesive? I like 986 S and may remove the new Boxster and replace with the number.

Bisimoto 06-14-2007 10:00 AM

Easy,
Come on by when ever!
The concept of the header lengths is good, but that collector is horrible. A far cry from optimal.

Tom,
I used dental floss to "saw" away the adhesive "boxster S", and "bug and tar" remover to get the residue off. It was very simple. Make sure that you alcohol swab the surface before applying the 986S emblems, the remover containes wax/hydrocarbon based compounds.
